India orders oil marketing companies to allocate 20% of commercial LPG
→Procurement teams must present certification to receive 20% commercial LPG allocation
Change
India ordered oil marketing companies to allocate 20% of the average monthly commercial LPG requirement from today in coordination with state governments to prevent hoarding.
Why it matters
Committee must assess genuine commercial LPG needs by geography and sector. State governments must coordinate with oil marketing companies to prioritise allocations. Domestic LPG must be prioritised for households and essential services, reducing commercial access.
Implications
- — Procurement teams at commercial LPG buyers in India must obtain certification of genuine need from the three-member committee immediately or risk exclusion from the 20% monthly allocation.
- — Distributors must apply monthly allocation controls from today or non-certified commercial customers will not receive allocated LPG.
